As promised I have several games (10) for you Wednesday, ranging from space shooters (very basic vector graphics) to puzzle games. I’ve tested them all and apart from a few I think they are all excellent clones and one I believe is actually quite original, called (Paper Flight. I promise you there’s going to be at least one game in this lot that you’ll like, none are more than 15Mb in size, the average however are only a single megabyte in size. All are from the same development studio called BlackRat Studios.
You can find all of them together with download links on the same page, so I’ve only posted the one link near the end of this post for all of the games apart from one called Pohl’s Tablet, which I found over on Softpedia, (because the BlackRat link is dead).and that one is posted at the end of the thread.
My favorite is Paper Flight, but most of these games are worth keeping for those odd moments when you don’t feel like playing a fully fledged 4Gb games, you want something simple but still entertaining, or if you’ve only got a few minutes to spare. Some of the games are mouse controlled others are keyboard controlled. Every game comes with a full set of instructions, so there’s no need for me to go into detail. Just enjoy. :)

Revenge of the Rats: (5.6Mb)
The roaches have taken over the homes of the rats. As a last resort, the rats create the RK1 (Roach Killer 1) in an attempt to take back their homes. Fight through 16 levels with a variety of weapons. Play the mini games to earn cheese and discover a top secret weapon. Fun for the whole family! (Well, if you have a very weird family).

Centipede’s Revenge: (1.5Mb)
A sort of sequel to the classic arcade hit, Centipede, in Centipede's Revenge the roles are reversed. Play the part of the Centipede through four different environments and destroy the mushroom fields of the elves. Never-ending, no two levels will ever be the same, even if you play the game over again. The fleas and the spiders are back too.

Vector Scape: (<1Mb)
Vetor Scape is a multi level space shooter with what I hope is a unique style to the graphics. The one failing that someone told me about it is the main craft of the player. People like to fly 'porches', not 'Buicks'. I still like it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ratz the Game: (1.4Mb)
Ratz was a short lived animated TV series about, surprisingly, rats. Two to be exact. Rapido and Razmo lived aboard an oil tanker that seemed to be on an eternal voyage to deliver a cargo bay full of cheese. It's one of my favorite programs so of course there's hardly any info on the net about it. Still, I managed to find a good copy of the theme song to include in this game. Play as Razmo, and fly his rat board through the ducts of the ship, rescuing the cheese and avoiding other obstacles.

Perceptia: (<1Mb)
Perceptia was created for a contest in which a game was to be based off of M.C. Escher's works. In this game, the player must make it through each level while switching the gravity, sometime completely around. It can get quite confusing.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Darwin: (1.7Mb)
Darwin is a game of survival. Guide Darwin, a little blue creature, around the sky and help him to avoid being eaten by the larger, red predator. But beware; the predator will try all sorts of tricks to slow Darwin down long enough to make a snack of him.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mouse Trap: (1Mb)
Description: Mousetrap is a recreation of the game of the same name from Colecovision, way back in 1982. Guide a mouse through a maze, avoiding cats and hawks , while collecting cheese. Collect bones to allow him to to turn into a dog and chase after the cats. The maze is ever changing thanks to several doors that you control.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tempest: Event Horizon: (3.8Mb)
Tempest: Event Horizon is a remake of the Atari classic, Tempest. All levels and enemies are included and game play is matched as close as I could get it. Comes with a level editor for making your own Tempest Levels. You can even replace all 16 maps of the original game to create your own complete custom game. Included are seven custom levels.

Pohl’s Tablet: (1Mb)
Pohl's Tablet is a straight forward word game in which the player must create words from the tiles given. Four different types of play should keep it interesting for a while.
